Founded in 1886 and registered as the 17th company in Hong Kong, The Wharf (Holdings) Limited (Stock Code: 0004) is deeply embedded in the history and development of Hong Kong. It has been a pioneer in the region's business landscape, marking its presence as one of the original 30 constituent stocks of the Hang Seng Index in the 1960s. Wharf stands by its enduring mission, "Building for Tomorrow," showcasing a commitment to forward-thinking development and excellence in management and execution. In 2017, the company strategically spun off Wharf Real Estate Investment Company Limited (Stock Code: 1997) into a separate entity, refining its business focus. Currently, The Wharf (Holdings) Limited's portfolio spans across Investment Properties, Hotels, and Development Properties in both Hong Kong and Mainland China. It has diversified into other sectors, including Logistics Infrastructure through its operations in Modern Terminals and a significant partnership in Hong Kong Air Cargo Terminals. The group's Peak Portfolio highlights its dedication to luxury and craftsmanship, meeting the high standards of its discerning clients. Despite challenges in the Mainland China market, such as stringent regulatory policies and competitive pressures, Wharf continues to adapt, being selective in new land acquisitions and focusing on long-term returns. With a significant footprint in the hospitality industry, Wharf Hotels manages an impressive portfolio of 16 hotels across Mainland China, Hong Kong, and the Philippines. Wharf's commitment to corporate social responsibility is evident through its "Business-in-Community" initiatives, notably the "Project WeCan" educational program, underscoring its investment in societal improvement and development.
